Your tank will last 4-5 hours.
Next question depends what you're talking about.
Filtering, from a holding tank ?

If you had a average flow rate of 2 ltrs a min 300 ltrs equates to 2 1/2 hours of non stop w/cleaning.

You can work more quickly with more water. However different jobs use different amounts. In a full day 7/8hrs on domestic I use about 200 litres in my trolley system but usually blade front doors at this time of the year - and sometimes patio doors too.

If I carried 300 litres I could be more liberal and work quicker but it would mean my estate car would have drums on all the seats and wallow like a whale!

i have 300L tank and run out most days, domestic, top and bottom. but reading posts here I think I am way too generous with the water. Still cant get my head round going over the glass twice and the a quick rinse.......tell me the confidence comes with time!!!!!!!!!! been wfp for 3 months so most houses are on 2nd or 3rd clean. Out of choice I would have 500L available to me so that I could rinse rinse rinse as much as I liked!
